- 1New in vivo multiomic proximity labeling method reported in Nature Chemical Biology●Multiomic proximity labeling in vivo by D-amino-acid-activated peroxidase reaction | Nature Chemical Biology
Researchers publishing in Nature Chemical Biology describe a proximity labeling approach that works in vivo using a peroxidase reaction activated by D-amino acids. The method is said to enable multiomic mapping of proteins and associated molecules in living systems, expanding the toolkit for studying molecular interactions in their native biological context.

- 3Russian strikes kill two in Kyiv, NATO scrambles jets▼Russian strikes kill 2 in Kyiv, prompt NATO to scramble aircraft in Poland, Romania
Russian strikes on Kyiv killed two people, prompting NATO to scramble fighter aircraft based in Poland and Romania in response to the attack. The overnight barrage again targeted the Ukrainian capital, and allied air defences on NATO's eastern flank were activated as a precaution given the missiles' proximity to member-state airspace.
